Hello, guys. Seismic Girls is halfway through its funding period, so I wanted to let you all know how grateful I am for your support and that I am looking forward to making the complete novel available to you one way or another. If it sounds like I’m dubious it will hit pre-order goals...well, I am. I accept that the lackluster momentum is due in large part to my admittedly lousy marketing skills and the fact that I’ve been decreasing my online presence because of factors that have nothing to do with writing. I’m sorry. I wanted to be better at this. For me, writing has always been the easy part while marketing feels like moving a mountain. 

While I’m low on faith that Seismic Girls will fund here, I still believe that it is worthy of an audience. Now more than ever, we need books that subvert tropes, especially with regard to gender roles. We need strong characters of all sexes and races. We need heroes we can root for and villains to hold up mirrors that let us better see our own society’s monsters. Seismic Girls has all of that, so I am confident it will find a home, even if it takes a little longer than expected. For now, we’ll stick it out until the end and see what happens. I’ll upload some more chapters starting next week. Thanks again for joining me on this ride. Keep making and consuming art!
